You did a very nice job on your quilt. Your color choices work well together. The two simple blocks make for an interesting quilt.

Thank goodness I got it finished. I like it but don't "love" it... just real happy it's in one piece, finally!

I could have written this post! It's very similar to one I'm quilting at the moment and I made mine king sized. The piecing was a challenge for me too, so it's been 'fun' to quilt. I put mine together about 6 yrs ago and it's called The Natural. Great learning experience

. I like your quilt colours, it's a little brighter than mine I think. How will you quilt yours?

It's a beauty! You'll probably end up loving it when you step away from it for a while.

Beautiful! Any quilt that has to be put together with blocks that must have adjacent partners to complete the block is a real challenge for me. You did such a lovely job on it. I'd say once the quilt is finished with beautiful quilting you will love it again. What a labor of love.

You may not love it, but I do! Lovely quilt, great design, wonderfully scrappy.

Beautiful work and beautiful colors. Take a deep breath, step back, and give it another look. You can pat yourself on the back for this one. What an accomplishment!
